SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Description
The OMEGALUXTMCRFC, CRWS, CRRS, and CRFP Series of vacuum formed ceramic heaters are produced using high quality, high purity, vacuum formed ceramic with a low sodium inorganic bond. In the CRRS and CRFP Series, helically wound quality iron-chrome-aluminum ribbon elements are mounted in ridges which permit heat dissipation in three directions, thereby, transferring more radiant heat energy to the work chamber and load. By using this grooved surface, these OMEGALUX products can more than triple the effective radiant surface. Sections 4.3 through 4.6 show the different types of heaters that are available from OMEGALUX as well as their specifications.
1.2 Recommended Maximum Operating Temperature
Maximum operating temperature is limited to 1800 degrees F degrees C. For more information refer to the material safety data sheet (MSDS-0135).
1.3 Tolerance
Because of the nature of ceramic fiber, there will be a potential variance of ±1/4" in the size of the heaters. These products initially may shrink at higher temperatures. This shrinkage could be up to 4% for temperatures up to 980˚ C, resistance tolerance is ±5%.
SECTION 2 UNPACKING
Remove the Packing list and verify that all equipment has been received. If there are any questions about the shipment, please call the OMEGALUX Customer Service Department at 1-800-622-2378.
Upon receipt of shipment, inspect the container and equipment for any signs of damage. Take particular note of any evidence of rough handling in transit. Immediately report any damage to the shipping agent.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
Care must be taken in handling the vacuum formed ceramic heaters due to the materials used in manufacturing them.

SECTION 3 WIRING PROCEDURES
3.1 General
1. Be sure that the line voltage matches the heater’s rated voltage.
2. Electric wiring to heater must be installed in accordance with Local and National Electric Code.
3.2 Heating Element Power Connection
1. Figures 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, and 3-4 should be closely adhered to, to insure maximum element life. L1 and L2 indicate the two power input wires from the user’s power source. Polarity MUST always be observed. L1 and L2 should never be connected adjacent to each other. Failure to observe polarity may cause premature heater failure.
2.
Recommended are mechancial terminations such as SPLIT BOLT connections or TERMINAL STRIPS. For the all heating element listed in this manual, the wire leads become brittle after being brought up to maximum operating temperature (980˚ C). Caution should be taken in handling heaters after initial operation.
3. Lead wire extending from the heater elements may be bent to form to your specific needs. Caution must be taken so that the integrity of the internal connection is maintained to prolong the life of the heating element. To avoid placing excessive stress on this junction, use soft nose pliers to hold the lead wire secure where the wire exits from the heating element and then bend.
112
CAUTION AND WARNING!!
Fire and electrical shock may result if products are used improperly or installed or used by non-qualified persons. Refer to the inside front cover for additional warranty information. The CR Series heaters are intended for RADIANT heat only.
NEVER LET MATERIAL COME INTO
DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE FACE OF THE HEATER.
NOTE: The carrier will not honor any claims unless all shipping material is saved for
their examination. After examining and removing contents, save packing material and carton in the event reshipment is necessary.
